    • Oversee PD and events financial operations including accountability for all invoicing and tracking, ensuring all invoices are processed accurately and efficiently and in line with operational processes, company policies and budgets.
    • Ensure use of the most effective and efficient event planning, workflows and delivery tools and processes which are regularly reviewed and updated to reflect best practice.
    • Develop effective event monitoring and evaluation procedures to ensure maximum return on investment and support a culture of continuous improvement.
    • Be a key point of contact for our authors, expert speakers and independent consultants, ensuring excellent relationships are maintained and that they are fully supported.
    • Manage customer and other event-related data to ensure we are capturing, using and reporting on data effectively and compliantly before, during and after events.
    • Ensure our event activity is in line with OUP's current legal, compliance and financial procedures.
    We operate a hybrid working policy that requires a minimum of 2 days per week in the Oxford office. This role will have the opportunity to attend external events from time to time.

    • Strong interpersonal and communication skills (written and verbal)
    • Strong ability to act as a team player and foster a collaborative team environment
